Slimming Coffee or KILLER Coffee

Hello! I am back after a month of hiatus :) and I want to tell you about my accidental discovery.

I know many of you have heard the wonders of Slimming Coffee. But, is it really safe?

After giving birth, I gained so much weight and since then I’ve been trying to lose weight. I tried various ways to lose weight like crash dieting, going to the gym, and jogging. I also tried searching for best diet pills that work like reductil. But, it all failed. : ( When I did the crash diet, I deprived myself of eating rice, which resulted in weight loss, but gained the weight again because I tend to eat more afterwards. In taking Reductil, which was recommended by my OB-GYNE for me to help me in losing weight, I also lost weigh in just 2 weeks of taking it, but stopped when I experienced shortness of breath and chest pain. Then, I gained back the weight again. I also tried to go back to the gym and jog, which was really the best way to lose weight, but stopped after some time due to lack of time.

Then, the Slimming Coffee came. I learned about it from my cousin and told me that it was effective. So, I researched about the Slimming Coffee and have read the promising results it gives to those who tried them. I learned that its effect is the same with Reductil. So, I thought that it might have the same component with Reductil and it was okay to take because it was recommend by my OB-GYNE. I also didn’t find any negative reviews about it. So, being too desperate in losing weight the easier way, I bought a box of the Slimming Coffee. I have tried it myself for 6 days and noticed that it is effective because I have lost 5 lbs in just 5 days and consuming 6 sachets. Some, including my husband and my OB-GYNE, noticed it too.

On my 6th day of taking this coffee, I decided to quit right away because I accidentally discovered something.

I was in the office that time, having a cup of coffee and pandesal for breakfast. After that, I went to the wash room to brush my teeth and wash the cup with leftover coffee (I think about a tablespoon). I put about 3 drops of “liquefied detergent powder” directly onto the cup before washing it. When I was about to wash the cup, I noticed the color of the leftover coffee – it turned Fuchsia pink. I was surprised and felt worried because I knew that the coffee has a component that made it change its color. With a strong background in Chemistry, I thought of the “pH indicator”. I can’t remember that time the particular chemical being used for testing the acidity or basicity of a particular solution. So, I researched about it and found out that it was Phenolphthalein.

Phenolphthalein has been used for over a century as a laxative, but is now being removed from over-the-counter laxativesbecause of concerns over carcinogenicity. – Source: Wikipedia.

Phenolphthalein is a chemical compound commonly pronounced. It is often written as “HIn” or “phph” in shorthand notation. Often used in titrations, it turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions. If the concentration of indicator is particularly strong, it can appear purple. In strongly basic solutions, phenolphthalein’s pink color undergoes a rather slow fading reaction and becomes colorless again.” – Source: Coffeechemistry.com

I researched the relationship between Phenolphthalein and coffee and I read these:

A new warning from Health Canada regards an illegal weight loss product called The Slimming Coffee, which has been subjected to clinical testing and found to contain the powerful prescription appetite suppressant sibutramine. This product which has also been sold as Lose Weight Coffee should be avoided because it could cause “serious health risks”. The product which has been advertised as a perfectly natural coffee drink is extremely dangerous because sibutramine while it is an effective appetite suppressant should not be used by certain people because it can cause high blood pressure. The weight loss medication Reductil which contains sibutramine is safe and effective when used by the right people. – Source: UKMEDIX

The Ukmedix Newsroom has received a warning regarding the sale of counterfeit and dangerous slimming pills involving a product called Marsha Slim Plus. The product that comes in a variety of forms including 60 capsule bottles and 30 teabags was sent to independent laboratories by the Department of Health in HongKong and found to contain an analogue compound of the active ingredient of the legal slimming drug Reductil.

The prescription medication Reductil contains sibutramine which has been subjected to years of clinical testing but sibutramine analogues while similar have not been properly tested. Not only this but there was no warning on the packaging that the product Marsha Slim Plus contained any powerful weight loss medications. Along with the sibutramine another chemical called phenolphthalein was also found. Phenolphthalein which is a laxative has been banned by most countries around the world because it has shown to cause cancer. The fact that phenolphthalein causes cancer is well known and yet the criminals who produce this weight loss medication don’t seem to care and value making money fraudulently well above any concern for your health. – Source: UKMEDIX

At first, I thought that regular coffees might also contain this substance. Since I mix the Slimming Coffee with a regular 3-in-1 coffee to make it taste better, I tried to put a few drops of the “liquefied detergent powder” in the cup and did not notice any changes. So, I concluded that the Slimming Coffee has a component that might be dangerous.

So, I decided to perform a test on this coffee. I made two different tests. One was dissolving pure Slimming Coffee in a cup of hot water, and the other one was mixing the Slimming Coffee with a 3-in-1 coffee and dissolve it in about 1 ½ cup of water, which I usually do when I drink the Slimming Coffee. I have dissolved about a tablespoon of detergent powder in a cup of water and set aside. I have also used a few drops of dishwashing liquid for further tests.

the box of the SLIMMING COFFEE

sachets

Here are the results I got:

the plain slimming coffee

a change in color (“purple-ish”) after mixing about a tablespoon of detergent, which I think indicates that the coffee has Phenolphthalein.

another change in color (“purple-ish”) after mixing a tablespoon of detergent in the mixture of slimming coffee and 3-in-1 coffee.

For comparison, check the photo below:

do you see the difference?

In addition, I also performed a test using a few drops of dishwashing liquid. However, I didn’t notice any change in color.

I showed it to my husband and told me that the manufacturer is brilliant. It was a brilliant idea because the manufacturer knew that the consumers won’t discover this change in color in their product when washing it using dishwashing liquid. In the Philippines, prior to the introduction of dishwashing liquids, people are using detergent bars or powders in dishwashing. Now, dishwashing liquids have been used widely in all households and detergent bars and powders are only used in laundry.

Dishwashing liquids and detergents have different components, which resulted in two different reactions when mixed with the coffee. The slimming coffee did reacted with the detergent maybe because of the ingredients of the detergent, which I think needs further laboratory tests.

These tests that I performed were due to my “accidental” discovery. You can try it yourself if you want.

This is an eye-opener to those drinking this Coffee. I know it is very effective in helping you to lose weight because I have tried it myself. But, I tell you IT IS NOT SAFE!!!

You know what? I am scared of what might happen to me years after taking this coffee. I am now researching on how to flush away these components on my body. I have decided to lose weight the proper and healthy way. I am now taking vitamins to further boost my immune system. I love my life and I need to take good care of it for me to be able to live long for my family. It’s time to make a change. It is not yet too late.

oh my god. this is JUST GROSS. ive been consuming that coffee for months now. i want to under go a major cleansing now. oh my. thank you.!
have you test it on other slimming coffee brands?
and what detergent did you use?

Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve been using this coffee for about 1 week now; good thing I saw your site when I was reading up on female network about this coffee. To be honest, I didn’t want to believe you because I want to lose weight so badly to prepare for my wedding. So I googled phenolpthalein and read the articles especially the abstract of the article for American Association for Cancer Research and what I read really scared me:

“It is more likely that the multiple biological properties of phenolphthalein, including its ability to form free radicals, its clastogenic activity, and its estrogenic activity, contributed to the carcinogenic effects observed. These studies show that phenolphthalein is a multisite/multispecies carcinogen. One of the sites for neoplasm that is of particular concern is the ovary, and epidemiology studies are under way to identify any potential effects of phenolphthalein exposure at this site in humans.”

To think, I might have reached my ideal weight for the wedding, but at what cost? Have no children? The thought absolutely scares me. Again thank you so much for enlightening me, and I hope others who are drinking this and are planning to drink this or other slimming coffees might be enlightened also.

By the way, I did also try the test. I prepared one sachet of the slimming coffee on a white bowl with a cup of hot water, then prepared about 2 tablespoons of Surf detergent powder with a 1/2 cup water. I poured a tablespoon of detergent solution first and immediately saw the change in color, clear as day. I poured another tablespoon and another, and you’ll see a dark color settle at the bottom of the bowl. I had to pour the whole detergent solution before the coffee would even become saturated and stop changing color. Does that mean that the concentration of phenolphthalein in the coffee is that strong? The end result actually looked a lot like blood, totally different from the light brown coffee that I had been drinking the past week.

I slowly poured out the liquid and saw a purplish fuschia color stained on the white bowl.

Bang, please update us if your research has shown you a way to flush these out. Again, thank you so much.

i may have a problem though. i am completely aware of the dangers, and yet i still bought two boxes of this. nakaka-3 sachets na ako. labag sa kalooban kong uminom, pero parang i’m obsessed na with losing weight even if i’m 108 lbs lang. i’m screwed. i hope i’d get over this na :|

Thank you for taking time to read my post. I haven’t done any research yet on how to flush those toxins kasi medyo busy sa work these past days. What I am doing now is eating right.

I also read somewhere that wheat grass is okay, pero pricey sya.

My OB-GYNE recommended me to take REDUCTIL not the slimming coffee. :)

@ jen, you can try the test using the ‘authentic coffee’ you know. I really don’t know how can we identify the authenticity of the slimming coffees being sold in market, kasi sobrang dami na naglabasan, and there are various brands pa. I purchased it from a multiply seller and FemaleNetwork member who claims that she sells authentic slimming coffee. But, I have nothing against her. I think she is also a victim here.

You said that you have a strong background in chemistry. what’s your course in college?

What was the basis that made you say that Phenolphthalein was present in the coffee? It was your assumption that it was Phenolphthalein right? Or can you back it up with laboratory tests and share it with us.

You are right that it was just my assumption that there was phenolphthalein in the coffee.

“a change in color (“purple-ish”) after mixing about a tablespoon of detergent, which I THINK indicates that the coffee has Phenolphthalein.”

It was the first thing that came up to my mind because it is one of the most common acid-base indicators being found and used in the laboratory.

Jen, I have nothing to prove to all of you about this issue. It is very clear in my post that it was an ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERY. I just want to document it and share with other people who also drinks this coffee. It is their choice if they still want to continue drinking the coffee.

hi there! is Phenolphthalein the only chemical that turns into pink when reacted to detergents? also according to your post Phenolphthalein is a laxative, basing from what ive read slimming coffees have no diarrheic effect.. but i must say though it is really too good to be true, imagine loosing several pounds in weeks time..

I think the coffee you bought is fake. It doesn’t have authenticity seal in it. It only has the gold sticker. My mom is drinking this and the coffee we bought has always two authenticity details on it, has embossed lettering of the name and 5 years shelf life printed under the box. Don’t judge the product you got alone, maybe you bought the wrong one so don’t over generalize. =)

I therefore conclude that every drink when mixed with detergent soap could kill you. :)

You know what bang, you just lost your credibility. I’ve also tried this experiment with other well known coffee brand and guess what some of them changed its color. I also tried it with juices and milks. Thanks for wasting my money for trying this dumb experiment.

This is the world wide web. You can always dream and make us believe that you really are a chemical engineer. Everyone can pretend and dream.. so feel free to do so!

this is a lesson to all women who desperately want to trim down but are too lazy or too busy to work out. there is no any other safer way to do this but to sweat it out and not take some poison. a lot of these have been discovered already but we always want to cut corners in losing weight.. and it’s not just a girl thing.

you just shared what you noticed, and thanks for alerting everyone. aminin nila o hindi, kundi dahil sayo hindi sila mageextensive research for this one. (for sure everyone has a doubt na to take this or not) hehe

Hi Bang,
Thanks for the info.
sorry to ask but does this include Leissure 18, I am a busy person so i really don’t have time to work out, pero kung may ganitong problem talaga. i will stop taking that coffee kahit na maganda pa ang effect nya sakin, actually i am wondering what was the ingredient of that coffee how come my cravings for food lessened. Kaya nga nagulat ako sa blog mo. wish you will take time answering my question..Thanks again…

how different is this product from all the other slimming pills pulled out from the market before? i think its ingredients are similar, if not the same.

remember how there was an expose on slimming pills, teas, etc on TIME magazine, how the daughter of an actor almost died because of side effects?

well, how different is this product exactly? a lot of people lost weight with the slimming pills, however, talk omitted those who did not. in fact, there should be a warning on every box.

i tried the slimming pill (ballerina, etc) previously and immediately noticed a change in discharge. plus, i was nauseous. took the box to my doctor, and voila, if you have a weak liver, you shouldn’t take it pala. it is the same with this new (well, not-so-new) but fad slimming coffee product. the manufacturers should post warnings on the label!!! but because it is manufactured in China where tests are not released (read: melamine in milk, formalin in candies, etc), are you even surprised they keep ingredients secret???

apparently, if you have heart problems, high blood pressure, etc, you SHOULDN’T take this SLIMMING COFFEE product! but do all these women know that? what are sellers waiting for? are they waiting for someone to drop dead before they even acknowledge that they are selling a product that isn’t FDA/ BFAD-Approved? i wouldn’t want that on my conscience, diba? even SENNA tea isn’t healthy if taken regularly, but at least the ones on shelves have warnings.

thanks for posting this blog. was curious why a lot of my girlfriends were into this coffee (or something similar).

While the author of this blog may or may not be mistaken in her conclusion about the presence of this Phenolphthalein in slimming coffees, I think she exposes a problem in these products (whether original or fake) — [b]no one knows if they are safe or not[/b]. No one, not even the resellers of these products, can outrightly say that these slimming products do not contain some harmful chemical. To my knowledge, no one has even come out to reveal all their ingredients. Everyone who has tried it or is selling it is just harping about its effectiveness in weight reduction. No one has studied all these products to see if they are really safe for human consumption in the long run.

i just want to share my experience about leisure 18 slimming coffee.. just like the others, i also searched in the net and found positive feedbacks.. so i also bought a box and tried a sachet at once.. but later in the day, i felt mild headache that turns into terrible one.. sobrang sakit.. i even vomited many times until my stomach was empty.. i was able to sleep only when i took biogesic. i was so scared that i didn’t drink the coffee again! it must be really too good to be true.. no one can tell what really the ingredients are.. specially most of its labels are in Chinese characters.. we should all be very careful..
thanks bang for sharing your experience..

Hi! I came across your article while researching on slimming coffees. I was just wondering, why, after 2 nights of internet research, are you the ONLY person I could find saying negative things about these products? Honestly, everywhere I searched, from sellers to buyers, to blogs and forums and individual reviews, all hailed this product!
I tried 1 sachet of Leisure 18 (bought individually at a Chinese drug store here in Bacolod for P25) about 3 days ago. And in those 3 days, I ate a LOT (Nov.1 holiday, family reunions & native delicacies) and I stopped jogging in the mornings (too busy-kids are on sembreak) – and after just one sachet and three days later — I lost 5 lbs! That may sound GREAT and I’m SO loving it, since I have been plateauing in the last few months w/ my weight, even with diet and exercise! But, I can’t help but be reminded of the saying: “IF IT’S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE…THEN IT USUALLY IS!” I’m asking myself, if this product is such a miracle-worker for weight loss, then WHY hasn’t the whole world begun using it? Afterall, obesity IS a huge problem nowadays! So, I really do smell sonething fishy here and my gut just tells me “NO!” so, even though I want to continue taking this coffee and losing weight effortlessly, I’d much rather live to be a grandmother or even great grandmother! Sad as I may feel about not being able to use this weight loss product, I think the cons outweigh the pros and I’d rather continue my jogging and sipping green tea & ampalaya tea (which I hate)… and do it the natural way-no matter how long it takes! Thanks for the info! =)

hi.. i read your blog and i totally agree with you. i’ve taken it as well.. if you want toxins from your body to be removed email me.. i have a wonderful product.. it’s So Easy Colon Cleansing.. If you want to know more abt this email me at chelpot@yahoo.com and use COLON CLEANSING as subject so i waill prioritize your message..

maybe that’s why the manufacturer’s always reminding the buyers not to take slimming coffee with people having high blood pressure, diabetes, pregnant and nursing, and most especially with serious health problems…..so if you’re obese you must not take slimming coffee, why? because most of the obese people have high blood pressure as well as diabetes and heart problems. so by taking this product will result to a very serious side effect, right? so in my own opinion, we have to be careful on buying, beware of the fakes because this people selling fakes are the one’s who doesn’t care about us….they just do care in making money.

Hi to everyone and thanks for sharing your blog… It’s really wake up call to myself for taking these ILLEGAL slimming coffee… Icame across to your blog few times looking for anymore negative comments, I took these coffees for almost 3 and half months and I totally drop my weight from 71 kgs to 63 kgs …. WOW! yeah Amazing! It’s means my coffee is Authentic! and Yes, I experienced those side effects initially, but then it’s turns fine, as usual I takes my meal in regular time but not much as before so I won’t feel dizzy even I don’t feel to eat and I don’t want to lose my weight dramatically like some people drop their weight for 5 kgs in 5 days and that’s not right so I’m still very careful while I’m taking these coffees… Some nights can’t sleep, palpitation at times but manageable, dryness of throat that’s why I keep drinking water, no constipation may be becoz I still eat my high fiber diet…

The Next happened to me 2 days ago… I was having light dizzy and bad headache i just thought it’s becoz of having my monthly period but behind that my friend took my Blood Pressure and iTs HIGH!!!!……160/110 !!!!
And it’s Scare me to death !!! My usual blood pressure is only 110/60 mmhg. At first I don’t believe that The main cause is the slimming coffee but I did my research those slimming coffees contains a SIBUTRAMINE and the side effect is high blood pressure lead to heart problems… For all those taking these coffees PLEASE STOP TAKING THEM!!! Before it’s too late and if you still love yourself or your Family… These coffees are banned to many countries like in Canada, America, Ireland or inEurope because it can lead you to death and it’s not safe!!!

For those who selling it… Please make up your mind! And do your research!!! I just only want to share my experienced. I hope I’ll be fine in few days and my blood test will be fine PLEASE GOD!

thank you for the info, about slimming coffee’s can you post or share to me what are others are also bad for people like me? i also have problem on my weight, and some people recommend me like slimming coffees, id like to know more abut it,please???? i will wait, and thank you for the info,

Thanks for posting, sis! I used the coffee for about 4 days but stopped when I couldn’t take the side effects – dryness in the mouth, palpitations and a feeling na parang ‘high’ ka the whole day. Worse, I started having bloody stool. It really scared me. I hope wheatgrass works. Do post your findings as to how these components can be flushed out of the body. We’re all eager to know. Thanks again, sis!

HI ms bang, just came across this blog entry from a friend.. im not a slimming coffee drinker pero i know people who sell, and people that take the coffee..may nagssabing effective, while some says they experience some sort of inconvenience with it, whatever that is, may nahhilo, may hindi talga makatulog etc. I just want to say this to everyone who so negatively commented on this post- its up to you to believe it or not!! Sana naman you can be open minded enough that this is a blog post, and heck Ms Bang can write whatever she wants here, and if may nasagasaan man na coffee drinkers jan, please lang dont take it against her, and please dont make it a personal
attack on you because you may be a user of a seller of this product. Panira ba ang blog entry na ito? What for? I dont know Ms Bang okay, this is the first time Im reading her entry, and ang pangit lang kasi that so many people are saying her post is a form of paninira..come on people, if you dont believe this then dont get affected. If you do, and you have tried to experiment yourself, then take the healthier route to staying fit.

You know ladies I think some of you are just blinded by the fact that you’re losing weight fast because of these slimming product. Don’t throw all that hate on the author..She just shared what she experienced. It doesnt really matter if the author bought a fake product or not, It really isn’t the point. The point is losing weight the right way is better than just depending on a product that promises you that you’ll lose weight fast. Di ba mas maganda yung you lose weight the right way? Proper diet, exercise, healthy living..yun lang po need nyo.. Discipline sa sarili din..at least sa healthy way wala ka inaalala na side effects or after effects..Really appreciate the article.

I hope this isnt suicide though. Im not obese,just 120 lbs and still 18. So I say, what the hell,why not try! I just hope I really do lose 5 lbs in just a week!lol! That would be really awesome. Im ready for it!

and i aslo found out
that the safe dosage of Phenolphthalein Laxatives
is 17gm per day.
eh yung slimming coffee has 10gms lang per sachet
eh may halo pa yung coffee so ilang gms lang dun ang laxatives.
and i also found out na kailangan di ka mag intake non
ng more than 3 consecutive mos.

Hi Bang, this is an eye opener, I was actually waiting for 4 more boxes of this controversial slimming coffee coming from the Philippines, I already consumed two boxes 3 to 4 mos ago. Now I am scared but I am certain that I am not going to take it again and will detox to flush it out. Gusto kong mabuhay ng mahaba kasama ang family ko. I will start running again better safe than SORRY! Please allow me to repost your article in my blog to let more people know how dangerous this slimming coffee for their health. thanks again.God Bless!

Being aware lang naman ang solution. Wala naman secret way sa losing weight! people its lifestyle change! and if don’t have kahit konting discipline sa sarili niyo. Good luck to you. You end up like an addict searching for a cure without even noticing it. Always searching sa fast effects.

hello!
I have a plan to buy slimming coffee this week but accidentally i read this blog.I am bit scared because of what i discover in this page.Is it really true about the said slimming coffee?I have a lot of friends who tried the slimming coffee and it worked.They really losing weight.That’s why i want to try but maybe i will not try because i am scared now.
Please allow me to repost this blog.thank you

Hi I’m also taking this slimming coffee. I think we have a different box,as well as different color of sachet. Mine is light red and also has a logo on both side of the sachet. I know that there are so many fake slimming coffee now in the market. I think what you’ve just bought is not the right one. It really is effective, we just might have different side effects. In the box itself, mine has 3 logos on both side, and one side has this gold sticker. Yours also has gold sticker, but the logo is only 2. I’m suggesting to those who’s using this slimming coffee, just make sure that what you’re buying is the real one.

A pleasant day to all of you, from the people concern, curious and for the people na napadaan lang,

First and foremost the best way to be fit and healthy is doing exercise and having a balance diet. People now a days are easily attracted to many ways kung paanu magpapayat with the use of Other substance such as slimming coffe, capsule, tea and many more. Epekto na ata to ng mga “Banyaga” But still we can’t blame the substance introduced, dahil na din to sa High Technology kaya nadidiscover ang new products..

My friend’s dad was a media in a certain company, he gone to BFAD ( bureau of food and drugs) and asked about the Brazilian Coffee.
This is the BFAD’s STATEMENT :

Brazilian Coffee was banned in Brazil for its bad effects like having kidney defects and distributed their stocks to the other countries particularly in the Philippines.
It is a wide spread and it is commonly being brought at the chinese drugstores. Brazilian coffee is not BFAD approved.

— hearing upon statement, I began worrying about my health and how would I get back to my usual lifestyle. Even though I stopped drinking this coffee, still I can experience, shortness of breath, Shaking, coffee addiction, headache, muscle pain, suppression of appetite, insomnia and the like.

Hello! Like many of you, I am also desperate to lose so much weight. I never tried this coffee because the effects it had were very much the same with Zhen de Shou. It was way popular years ago because it really curbed cravings and you just had this overwhelming thirst that you need to quench every now and then. I didn’t mind that side effect at all considering that I also lost 10 pounds in the first month.

What made me stop was that on my second month, I could no longer sleep. And it felt like I was always high with something I could not identify. After a few months, Zhen de Shou capsules were raided all around the Metro because the BFAD found substances that can definitely lead to organ faliure in the long run.

I am very much positive that the substances found in this slimming coffee is the same components found in the banned substance. I had the very same side effects – loss of appetite, increased thirst, palpitations, sweating, insomnia and later on I had terrible bad breath that smelled very much like medicine. It was the time when I told myself that I had to stop.

We really don’t have to attack the writer on this blog regarding her experience. We are all free to decide what we wish to with our health. So the call is ultimately yours. Here’s my two cents hoping it could get others to avoid something that is not well studied.

And oh with regards to identifying the fake coffees and such – they had the very same marketing strategy with Zhen de Shou. When people had side effects, they immediately claimed that it was FAKE. So it was really smart for manufacturers to produce different packages from gold, silver etc. It was easier for them to work their way around the ill effects because if a person had problems, the conclusion was always related to not getting genuine ones. I think it’s a clever marketing strategy at our expense.

hi! i already consumed half box of this slimming coffee when i came across your article ,and like everyone else i got scared too… and right after reading your post,due to curiosity, i immediately tried what you did to check if it’s really true or not, i mean the change of colors,however there’s almost no changes at all except for the li’l bubbles of the after result due to the liquid detergent i put or mix in the coffee (i used Joy liquid detergent) ,i even took a picture of it “the before and after”. somehow , i felt relief upon seeing the result…
I don’t know guys, i’m not sure anymore about this coffee but i do like its effect on me.

my friend gave me 4 sachets of slimming coffee,same brand with what you have tested…on the second day i felt so weak and i lost my appetite.all i wanted was water or any cold drinks.it didnt bother right away because i thought those effect were normal and i thought my body was just adjusting to the coffee that i was taking.but on the third day i felt weaker even had shortness of breath and i was so dizzy the whole day…3 days since i stopped drinking that coffee but im still suffering from chest pain and body weakness.

Slimming coffee contains illegal chemicals that can cause serious damage to your health, especially people with heart and kidney problems. If it was legal don’t you think you could buy a box from every retail outlet anywhere in the world. Stop fooling yourselves by only reading the possitive comments from websites selling the products. Wake up people there is no legal healthy quick fix, get off your asses follow a diet and do some excercises.

Hi, I tried this Liessure Slimming COffee, I take 3 sachets as of this time, I feel its very effective. AS of now I try to finish the 18 Sachet then. Then if I feel bad then I decide to stop. as of now , I cant say that Slimming coffee is a killer coffee. May be you bought the fake Slimming coffee. It is true that it can lose ur appetite, I think its normal . After taking the 18 Slimming Coffee then thats the time I have to decide.

haaay. most foods and beverage are actually deadly if not taken in moderation. drink too much “regular coffee” you’ll get in trouble. drink slimming coffee you’ll get in trouble. check for BFD approved, buy at mercury drugstore etc. many ways to ensure safety. don’t take it against each other guy. palitan na lang kayo ng information para mas educational so we can come up with a decision whether to buy or not di ba? thanks for the posts anyway

Jessica you must be addicted to this coffee or your doses are not as high as the one my patients take. Initially by taking one sachet per day their hands start shaking, entire body gets jittery, its the same side affects as amphetamine.
After a few weeks the body becomes tolerant and before they know it they are taking 2-3 sachets per day. Just like any drug.
Yes Raly, drinking too much normal coffee is bad for you, due to the caffeine content. Slimming coffee however contains much higher doses of illegal drugs such as sibutramine ( look it up it causes cancer )

i´m not against anything else here my stand is the fact that no one will lives forever no matter how physically fit you are.The thing is, it´s nice to see yourself in shape that´s why most people take the risk of anything just to attain that dream figure, and i myself did the same thing even though i´m not really fat just that chubby type, and also i don´t believe that this coffee contain some addictive ingredients like for example amphetamine, coz with regards to the price of this coffee, it´s not that expensive and i think some of us have an idea how much amphetamine are.Anyway all of us have their freewill to choose whatever they wanted to be.. tnx

I’ve already consumed one box of Leisure 18 slimming coffee(ORIGINAL with seal and all)..Some of the posts I’ve seen have different spelling of this product (Leissure, Leizure) I don’t know if we’re talking about the same product. I’ve tried the test immediately after reading BANg’s post. No change in color.

Well, Im not feeling any effects at all.. I dont feel overly thirsty, no dizziness, my blood pressure is normal, I sleep well.. Its Just that I crave less and I dont eat as much as before. Yes I’m losing weight but I , dont attribute that to slimming coffee coz I’m doing an after six diet as well.. and my weight is gradually decreasing— not abruptly as most users attest..like how many in a week? Its not healthy to lose weight drastically, that’s a fact.

Will I use it again? hmm.. I have one more box in my shelf and I’m planning to consume it then stop evetually.. Discipline is more powerful than any other slimming coffee or tea out there. Also, I’ve read an article in yahoo health that might help you trim down your weight. This one’s with proven study and you don’t really have to “completely overhaul your diet or exercise regimen to see fast and impressive results on the scale.”

hope this article helps..^^ I dont have anything against slimming coffee..try it at your own risk. But I suggest dont take it as a maintenance to stay fit. its alright to use it less than 3mos to motivate you coz you’re seeing results right? but after you gained your desired weight, its best to stop and just maintain that weight and never go back to your old bad eating habit. Love your Body, Eat Right. You can never go Wrong with that :)

By the way, its true that this entry is the only one you can find that doesn’t promote the coffee. I’d like to extend my thanks to Bang coz she prompted us to do thorough research before taking anything! haha.. Interesting Blog. I’ve learned a lot, not from the entry alone, but also from the comments as well.

oh my G!!! sobrang nakakatakot talaga… ive been drinking brazilian coffee for almost 5 months… and of corse pumayat ako. ang nakakatakot ay yong effect nito.. biglang nangingilabot ako…. and hopefully its not too late for me.. oh my.. im still young and so many plans in my life and to my family….

hi,thanks for warn us,i have started dringking for just one week and it really fast reaction,im not interested to eat im not starving.i buy the coffee here in hongkong,maybe need to stop dringking.
but i have advice also to those who wants to go on cleansing,potato,tomatoe,red apple,carrots.you mix that all and get the juice of that and make one glass no mix must be pure.drink every morning only,and you could alternate it with green pepper,celery,cocumber,ampalaya same process just drink the juice.tested by my friend with mayoma and breast cyst…im taking it too for cleansing.lemon grass also can help to prevent cancer..tnx bye the way bangs..

I admit. I am one of those dreaming to reclaim the old figure but is either too busy, or too lazy. I went out with a couple of friends and noticed htat two of them lost so much weight, 6 inches cutoff to be exact, in just three months. they said they were drinking this slimming coffee, about half a sachet per day because they palpitate if they drank more that half a sachet. They mentioned a brand – i forgot to take mental note, but I said that I’d like to try it out.

Thanks to your article, you meant well. True or not, this piece of info I’m taking as an advice.

I have to be more conscious of the food or “medicine” that I take – the risk to my health and loved ones is much too huge to take.

I’ll share this information to my friends, whther they are taking the coffee, or about to take it like me, before I chanced upon your “advice”.

I started taking Leisure 18 when my friend recommended it because it helped suppress her appetite. My sister also tried it though she said it didn’t work for her. The thing is, they both gave me a box, one has white sachets and the other gold. It wasn’t in a box because it was sent to me abroad.
Anyway, I tried both. I see white particles floating on the coffee that I assumed to be melamine because it’s definitely not milk (considering the rumors about melamine). And there was a time when I was having breakfast, when I poured hot water on my almost empty coffee mug, I was shocked to see a fuchsia pink liquid filling it up. I opened the pot to check whether the waiter gave me some forest fruit tea in a pot or plain hot water. It was, indeed, just plain hot water. I took a picture since my mug had a bit of coffee stains and the liquid in it turned out to be fucshia!

It was mysterious to me since I didn’t pay much attention to my chemistry teacher. I just found it weird and still continued to drink my slimming coffee everyday. Now, I guess I have to research about it more. My conclusion, absolutely UNSAFE. Thanks for the input. It may help others lose weight but they don’t know the longterm effect.

I ordered at Amazon.com 2x lats year this Brazillian coffee, very effective kaya nagtuloy tuloy ako,then out of stock cla by Jan,my co worker supplied eveybody in our job place,then last march 27,I ordered online again on different website, unluckily from PI yung website kaya dumaan sa custom,then was confiscated and US custom send me a letter that the item contained controlled substance which is Sibutramine, cannot import this substance.Kaya natakot ako coz of the side effects of Sibutramine,but they never mention about Phenolpthalein content. Anyway, still this coffee is not safe coz of very high cardiovascular risk etc.. etc..Tinigil ko ng uminom nito.. thanks

Hi Bangs,
I have this slimming coffee by Slimina and the ingredients are: Hunger-oblivison grass, Griffona Simplicifolia, Bitter Orange Extracts and Instant coffee, it doesnt mention any other ingredients such as Phenolphthalein. This is made in China but distributed in Philippines. It’s a 12 pack box.
I thought that companies are required to disclose all ingredients that has been used to make the product. Could you tell me if Slimina is a newer generation and has made the improvement necessary to make it a safe product for the consumers? The warnings on the box indicate: not suitable for people who have cardiovascular disease, stroke patients and people with serious illness, but there’s no mention what are the side effects to warn a person to stop using the product.
I would appreciate any help or information you can provide.
Thank you for your hard work and research and your brilliant inquiring mind for the rest of us.

Thank you for this. Most people nowadays always look for instant solutions for different problems.. be it in health, love, finances, etc. Though we are in a fast pacing world, let us be reminded that everything has a proper process & most cannot be solved by quick fixing/solutions.

With regards to staying young, fit & healthy naturally, without deprivation, you may read the book “Fit for Life.” It will really help you a lot!

Hi, actually even before I started taking this coffee I’ve already read your blog but since I wanted to be fit, I’ve ignored it. I’ve ordered this coffee through multiply and then a week after I’ve decided to stop using it. Why? Because I started to feel pain in my upper right part of my abdomen. I’ve consulted my doctor and told me that I must stop drinking medicines because my liver is having difficulty to function normally. I was really shocked because I’m not a type of person that drink medicine unless I cannot longer take the pain. Now, I’m doing the natural way of losing weight, slowly but surely and my liver is gradually recovering. I’m so thankful that I’ve prevented the harmful effects of it early. You must stop using this, don’t risk your health with this. God bless you all….

Hi Bang Thanks for the info it really helps.. since I’m using Leisure18 Coffee and juice for 2 and half months now , After reading your blog I immediately tested every sachets from each box to check if those really change its color. After the tests, Luckily still same color with and without detergent. I believe I got the Authentic coffee and Juice and Effective po xa sa akin I will stop then taking this coffee and juice If na achieve ko na yung desired weight ko po…FYI: Yung Leisure18 Slimming Coffee is manufactured from Hong Kong.. Yung mga fakes lang po galing China… And would like to share also na ang effect ng coffee will vary from person to person… It might be effective to me but not effective to you. so depende po yun if you will take the risk to drink the coffee or any other Slimming teas or pills available in the market. At least I experienced a Slimmer Body. hehehe Halos naman po lahat ng kinakain natin may halong chemicals lalo na yung may CARCINOGENIC FOODS na maka cause ng cancer.. so Ingat lang po sa mga kinakain natin. Still I would recommend Healthy Diet and Exercise… Thanks Again…

nothing will happen to you of course if you will not be addicted. use it for only 2 months. then just maintain your weight and diet. she used it for 6 months. lol, all of diet pills are harmful. there is nothing that is not harmful except green tea and l-carnitine. drink the coffee with detergent so you will die. motha fuckas

I’m 19 years old and bought 1 box of fashion slimming coffee. Like all other girls, I’m desperate to lose weight. I was was looking for reviews for this coffee and only found positive ones. You are the only one I found who has a negative comment about the coffee. I saw the pictures and your experiment. I compared your box with mine. As I observed, your’s was fake and mine was the authentic one.

I’ve been drinking this coffee for 4 days now. Even though its authentic, I still feel unusual: shaking, goosebumps, shortness of breath, dry throat, dizziness and feeling weak or faint. However, I was able to sleep well and still be able to go to the bathroom. I only eat less due to the effect. I know its been only 4 days in taking this coffee, but I never lost a single pound. Some say they lost pounds in just 2-3 days of taking it. I even exercise for better slimming results. How come I didn’t lose any pounds? Take note that the coffee I’m using is authentic and even has the authenticity seal.

Anyways, as I write my comment here, I feel weak, dizzy and can’t breathe normally cause I drank the coffee this morning. I’ve never been like this before. Ever since I drank that coffee I feel different. This would be the last day I’ll be drinking this coffee and I’m going to lose weight in an old fashion way and healthier way.

For those girls out there who are saying that they get good results and not feeling unusual on the coffee, you may feel that way now but wait till you get older and you will see the true effect. You may buy the coffee for less but you will pay on hospital bills more.

Bangs is just trying to give us a heads-up and share what she knows about this product. She might be able to help and save millions of lives with just this blog of hers.

All I can say right now is lesson learned and even though the slimming products you bought are authentic or fake and as long as they are not approved by the BFD or even the DOH, they are not safe. To all of you, stay safe and healthy and I thank Bangs for the heads-up. She can be the reason on why we are still healthy and living. ;)

hi! i am so glad i found this article of yours. I was just about to buy a box of Fashion Slimming Coffee because that’s what’s available in the mall nearby. but if i may ask, if these slimming coffees have phenolphthalein, why does BFAD and HALAL approve Max Slimming Coffee?

thanks for the info …. good thing i made the effort to search for the slimming coffee they have been trying its cheaper than what i am using right but way of reducing weight but the risk we put ourselves at risks……

i am using the herbal life for a month now so far okey naman po…. for the herbalife products you may contact me
09228280625 baka may gusto mag tanong….

Thanks for the one who posted this, i also used slimming coffee for how many months, itinigil ko to dahil sa katagalan prang wla na effect.. And then ngkausap kami ng friend ko,. she’s married more than a year na, bute yet wla pa sila baby, when she went to the doctor sinabihan sya na affected na matres niya dahil sa mga ininom niya na slimming product,. She’s now undergo medication together with her hubby pra mgkababy.. OMG! sobra effect ng pag-inom ng slimming coffee na yan.. Stress kn emotional for not having a baby, stress ka pa sa budget for medication and at risk pa health mo.. God! thanks for those people who posted this..

My officemate introduced this slimming coffee just this week and gave me 5 sachets for a start. We’re sharing a box for now but thought of buying a whole box each after. But, because of the stories about getting slimmer faster, I got curious and decided to do research on the net. At first, I got excited with the good reviews until I read this blog. Now, I have second thought of continuing to drink this coffee even how I long to return to my slimmer body before I got married. I’m confused a bit..I want faster result but if it will risk my life???? I don’t know. How I wish the effect isn’t that bad for my health. :(

Thanks for the info you gave. I had bough one box of 7 Days slimming coffee that costs P250 at SM. Then I bought another two boxes still at SM from another store that would cost P400 a box. I experimented both coffee. The cheaper one turned into purple and the more expensive remained to be brown, as in no change in color. I drank about ten sachets of the cheaper one and I don’t know how to flush out the chemicals in my body. Please help…Thanks

I had bought from SM the 7 Days Brazilian Slimming Coffee.at P250 per box. Then after a week I bought another two boxes from another store at SM at P400 per box. I tried to do the experiment by adding the detergent into the coffee. The cheaper one turned purple but the expensive one remained the same, still brown and no change in color detected. I had taken ten sachets of the cheaper one. I also don’t know how to flush out the chemicals in my body. I also need your help…..

hi miss bang,
Very informative ng blog mo and really an eye opener for all. I’m very impressed to you, your basis are scientific. I can say lucky are those people who are anxious to discover things and wise like you.

For all,
And now the question: A SLIMMING COFFEE???
Answer is: Yes indeed, it is! Will definitely make you slim surprisingly and in no time! Effortless ika nga!

Next question is: A KILLER COFFEE?
Answer is: Yes again. It would barely and slowly kill you. Frightening and disappointing, isn’t? But true.

REASONS/ EXPLANATIONS:

Example: Brazillian coffee

Main ingredient: Garcinia Cambogia- certain fruit ito na tumutubo mostly in India and some parts of Asia. Yung extract o katas nya ay hydroxycitric acid (HCA), claimed to suppress appetite and enhance fat-burning. Animal research supports these claims, but subsequent human trials have been equivocal (means unclear/ misleading)
Now, is it indicated sa box or leaflet yung dose or amount nito per serving and How long mo ito iinumin o kelan ka hihinto???? HINDI. Masama ba ito?? OO. Bakit? kasi hindi natin alam kung excess amount na ba yung natatake natin and it is known to cause serious side effects and aggravate other underlying health conditions. (na nararamdaman na nga ng most people na umiinom nito, I cant elaborate all but mind you that symptoms may vary from one person to another)
Is it safe to use appetite suppressants??? It might be or it might be not kasi iba iba ang nature ng mga ito. One kind is yung nabibili sa drug store, another one is herbal or natural (e.g. Garcinia Cambogia) However, FDA and BFAD hindi nila nireregulate ito nor inievaluate for safety and efficacy. That’s the reason kung bakit walang approval ito galing sa BFAD,

It seems you like to be famous and be a good commentator like “Bang” but actually both of you are people with no good accomplishment. Commenting on something with out solid evidence . Dropping your statement of “Slimming Coffee or Killer Coffee” is a big accusation that needs to get attention from the manufacturers of those slimming coffee. Both of you are lucky of living in the Philippines that until now no manufacturer is filing a case against you of “Defamation”.

To you, “Bang”… I wish there is someone in Manila who will have the nerve to go to court and get an order to close your site. Only people with small brain will believe in you. You make me laugh on your post and after reading your story on the test you made on a certain coffee using a liquid soap!
What is your profession really by the way? I don’t blame your followers, Filipino by nature is “Matatakutin” kaya walang asenso sa buhay “Poor Mentality and Judgmental” but good in corruption and fooling others. Are you making money with your website for having too many ads or maybe someone is paying you to give negative comments on your site to a certain product. How about have a positive mind and attitude of thinking that those manufacturers spent their time and money to discover a good solution for obese people or over weight to avoid complications on their health cause by having over weight?

To you again Anonymous,

Let’s talk about the main ingredient: Garcinia Cambogia… Not to make you like a stupid try to check out this websites:

before trying to scared other Filipinos for drinking the slimming coffee.
Compare also the rate of people died from being obese and the people
died from drinking the slimming coffee. That is just easy, one plus one equals two… Might those people like you and Bang will easily get the true answer but you need to be good in Math and analysis!

To everyone,

Fashion Slimming Coffee with Japan Pearl Extract and the Slimming Orange Juice are one of the good and best to drink to lose weight and even people with high blood pressure and diabetic can take it.

I did some research on both before made my decision to let myself and my daughter drink it.

By the way, my profession is a director and an independent corporate flight attendant at the same time… My name is Grace from California, USA.

Not my intention to insult anyone, just practicing my freedom of speech!
I cannot just tolerate people with no respect and don’t hesitate to open
their tactless mouth and mind.

Hello everyone! This is Grace again… Just forgot to mention,
I was with 24 hour fitness for 3 years and never lost a single pound.
What a waste of money paying $24 for my membership fee monthly and
gas expenses of going to the gym everyday… But with the Fashion Slimming Coffee for 3 months, I lost 15 pounds and my cholesterol level went down from 300 to 230 based on my recent blood test.

At present… I am still alive and kicking. Trying to be more healthy and to look more gorgeous at the age of 48 by taking the slimming coffee. Proud and consider myself as one of the good results of that wonderful product.

What the hell is with this hate comment? The blogger is doing a good thing, by trying to warn us to be careful when drinking coffees/slimming things like these. We don’t even know if this is approved by BFAD or even FDA in your case! These might have harmful ingredients which can really damage our health in the long run.

You can ask any doctor/ health specialist around but the best way to lose weight is still proper diet and exercise/ healthy lifestyle.

I don’t even know why you mentioned that you’re a director blah blah blah and that you’re from the States. What does that have to do with it? Are you a chemist? Are you from the FDA? At least the blogger said she has a little background in chemistry. Anyway, good luck with drinking your slimming coffee.

Thank you and I still drinking the slimming coffee until now… My gorgeous self is still alive and kicking!
Good luck to you also and I hope your tiny brain will grow fast and learn to be more resourful and open minded.

hi. i happen to read ur post while searching for the brazilian coffee. i happen to try leisure 18. i was wondering before pa about its side effects. when i read this. i tried to perform what you did. but then i put dishwashing liquid instead of detergent (same lang ba ng components yun?). anyway, nothing happened. sana may maglakas ng loob na ipa-test to sa BFAD.

OMG! OMG! OMG! T_T…..I’m terrified. goosebumps and sad:(.
I’ll do the same test and further research about this coffee (Leisure 18 Slimming Coffee). I agree that it’s effective but has side effects on me. …Dry throat, palpitation and sleeplessness. Actually, kaya ko nabasa ito dahil hindi ako makatulog. huhuhu! It’s 5.30 in the morning now! How come?

Hi Ms. Pac! Sorry, I don’t have the box of this slimming coffee anymore kasi I threw it away. I purchased this coffee around August last year from an online seller from a popular online forum. Some of texts were updated as of May 2011 but not the photos because those photos were the only photos I was able to retrieve since this blog was hacked a few months back.

i remember this is our first year college chemistry lab subject.. this is the Litmus test. Pero dahil consumer welfare office head ako sa Paranaque, it called my attention, i guarantee na within the week, i’ll visit FDA (Food and Drug Authority former BFAD) office to ask them to run a test.

we just really want to know the result of the test coz i also use the said slimming coffee for several months and i want it to know if the said is really dangerous to my health. hope you can provide the answer for this thanks

hello there, just tried NATURE Fashion slimming for 2days now, true it suppresses appetite and my cravings, dries my throat and i feel some slight pain on my chest that causes my shortness of breath..i did the TEST just a couple of minutes AGO! mix a little of SLIMMING POWDER with one SPOON of HOT water then MIXED it with LIQUID DETERGENT (joy)..i waited for a pinkish change in color BUT NO CHANGE happened. I made another MIXTURE and this time it was with POWDER DETREGENT (ariel)…still NO CHANGE IN color APPEARED!!! i made another MIX OF REGULAR 3 in 1 coffee and mix with detergents and NO COLOR CHANGE happened too!!! what do u think do these TESTS indicate? CAN it be that the SLIMMING COFFEE u PURCHASED is FAKE? I bought one from a friend working in KUWAIT! she purchased it there! HOPE YOU CAN SHARE ur reactions about THESE TESTS i performed with the SLIMMING COFFEE!!! (the mixtures are still in the lavatory! i just took a peep and the colors stay the same: BROWNISH COFFEE COLOR!!!!) am confused now!!!!!

thanks for the prompt reply bang! i made another mixture of the NATURE SLIMMING coffee with ARIEL DETERGENT POWDER (one teaspoon of coffee POWDER dissolved in 2 tbsp of HOT WATER then mixed with the detergent)…..i wanted to be SURE about the CHANGE of COLOR from BROWNISH to PURPLISH…….but HONESTLY, up to now, the COLOR remains the SAME, normal coffee color or shall i say MOCHA in color due to the presence of the detergent which served as its CREAMER!
so what do u think BANG is the reason behind this? perhaps, we’ve got different formulations of the SLIMMING COFFEE. does this 4th TEST/experiment of mine convey that I CAN CONTINUE DRINKING IT???? please DO ADVISE! thank u!

btw, i mixed 1 tablespoonful of ARIEL powder! it’s still here beside me and nothing has changed! i even put the mixture near ur picture to compare COLORS but my coffee mixture remains a brownish mocha coffee in color!

so what u think ms. bang? is it safe to continue drinking my NATURE SLIMMING COFFEE?

Miss bang?
what did you do? what were your symptoms when you took the slimming coffee?
How serious would this turn out? coz having these symptoms plus reading the symptoms on phelnolphthalein poisoning parang positive ako sa symptoms and I am really scared. :c

as i have read all the comments, i must say, the blogger is really health conscious to the fact making a quick accidental experiment leading to awakening people to be very careful about this product based on her accidental discovery. well, thanks to this blog, information are real about the ban of most slimming coffees and pills because most of those contains sibutramine.

but one thing for sure, coffee really contains Phenolphthalein and it’s carcinogenic. that is why even in some branded coffees the purplish color result would turned on it. plus, addiction or overdose leads to health problems. besides, the blogger bought was 100% FAKE. deadly from those facts right?

a piece of advice, if you are taking any slimming coffee or just any pills or drugs, you know the fact that it contains chemicals, wherein chemicals are really hazardous to health, you should be very extra careful when you know that your health is in danger, you should know and you even feel what is not right for you. coffees can really cause palpitation and is not prescribed to those with high blood pressure or cardiovascular disease. it is visible in the label that there is caution it is not for those who have blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, pregnant, lactating, serious health problems. common sense, if you are concerned of your health, then you must have it check first before taking any such chemicals.anyways, you know your lifestyle, if you think you have been exposed to chemicals specially alcohol,cigarettes,pollution etc. then your health is already at risk without even experiencing any symptoms. from that fact, good nutrition must be supplied before even taking another chemicals into your body right? intake of vitamins and natural fresh foods should not be forgotten specially these modern days WHEREIN FREE RADICALS ARE PRESENT EVERYWHERE. in addition, of unhealthy lifestyle we have.

As we know, these slimming products that are appetite suppressant that is why, i repeat that is why, we really need to partner these with good nutrition, since you have lessen your calorie and nutrition intake due to the suppress of food. consumer must really, really take nutritious food or take vitamins and a supply of more water intake. that is important. more water intake because the effect is you are craving for it.

i also read that these should be taken maximum 3 months. that is right, overdose is not good. even in contraceptive pills we know when we should stop because of the experience of its side effects.so stop if you if it is not right for you. please do take extra good care of your health, have a natural way of slimming and not insist on products that you know harms you.there are a lot of choices to make, natural or chemical? or mix. it’s upto you, you should know your health and what best fits for you.

I was about to order a box of slimming coffee online, but I decided to make a research about it first. My officemates were also drinking slimming coffee but they stopped because they experienced palpitation, although I saw the result that they becme slimmer.

I just want to share this. I’m drinking biofit slimming tea ONLY twice a week or if I think I ate too much meat (the side effect is that you will “poo” after 4-6 hours, and it’s really masakit sa tiyan). Im drinking this tea because I have a problem in my bowel movement (constipation) and it really helps me. And I noticed that my tummy is now smaller unlike before. Been drinking this for more than a year now. I had side effect before, I had ulcer because I took it at night without eating anything. So if you plan to drink this, you should not leave your stomach empty at night.

I think that not eating rice at night can help us to reduce weight. Im this for 7 months, I was 125 lbs, now I am 109 lbs (I am big for my height, im only 4’11” ft.) . I just eat rice at night at least 3 times a week (if I cant help myself not to eat dinner lang). I eat steamed veggies, egg, or bread, and more water. AGAIN Just don’t leave your stomach empty to avoid ulcer.

I think this is the best way to reduce weight if you’re too lazy or too busy to do exercise. I went to gym for 3 months and play badminton once a week for 2 months. I stopped because I’m really tired after work.

I hope it can help you somehow. Don’t abuse our body, love our health. For the blogger of this blog, much thanks to you, thanks for info. I’ll stick to my diet and forget about that slimming coffee. God Bless us!

hmmmnnn…this will be my 3rd day taking the slimming coffee. i did experience palpitations and light headedness…so similar feeling to that of an E. also…feeling ko horny ako lagi :)
well…im sure may kasamang drug to na nakaka supress ng apetite talaga.
i lost 4 lbs agad eh…so i dont know.
if i reach my target weight within the week…most probably i’ll stop.
with bang’s blog…well…she just want to share her experience. let’s not attack her with foul statements. ok??

I am not body conscious despite my extra pounds because I understand that the older a woman gets (I am 38), the higher her chances are of getting “heavier”. I wouldn’t say I haven’t thought of getting into the “slim” bandwagon by purchasing these “miracle” slimming products, but good old common sense would always stop me even before I get to decide if it is even worth the try… in simple language, I haven’t tried any slimming product. Besides, I am aware that there’s more to me than just my body… I wouldn’t be less than a person if I were overweight — in fact, there’d be MORE to love, lol!

Don’t mind the haters. If they decide to go on with their regimen, you aren’t discouraging them anyway.

Hi! You said that it was the coffee that changed color when the detergent was added. That could mean that it was the detergent that contained the indicator Phenolphthalein thereby changing the coffee’s color when it was administered. Phenolphthalein solution is actually used by some manufacturers in their detergent products. The coffee turning pink could mean that either the coffee or the water used for the coffee has a relatively high level of alkalinity (or is basic). Water softened with anionic resins may contain sodium ions which could react with the phenolphthalein in the detergent making the solution pinkish. If it is the coffee itself that is basic (which then makes it weird because coffee is acidic) then there must be an ingredient in the coffee that has very high alkalinity.
Just my two-cents-worth.

Hi Bang,
Thanks for sharing this… I’m a fan of slimming products and i already stopped it because of the unsafe chemicals added…. Anyway, i’m having my natural diet now , eating fruits and healthy meals. it’s effective and I feel much better. Its just a matter of self discipline for us to achieve our desired weight.

woah! thanks for the info Ms. Bangs. everyone in my family is taking this slimming coffee from china! I just had a cup of it before I’ve read this blog. My mom is hypertensive and I know she has the highest risk of any health compromises that this coffee could cause us. Even my older bro is taking it. well,this is really an eye opener for me because I admit that I might have an eating disorder (i’m 5’6 and weights 106 lbs which falls into underweight category) , I worry too much of getting fat so I try pin down my appetite and barely eat in a day. So when I learned about my mom and my two siblings is managing their weight with the help of this coffee,I immediately tried it out too. I’m using it for more than a couple of months now and I am satisfied by its effect. Now,i’m kinda worried what might this obsession to losing weight will lead our health to.

hi ms. bang..
im about to purchase this slimming coffee in replacemennt of my normal 3 in 1 coffee…..i just researched the side effects of this product coz i thoght its natural and safe.. yet iv found out that its harmful….

so il stay at home and will not buy na lng… kakatakot pala nito…. and its really hazardous.. im a body conscious guy .. and needs to loose 5kg lang naman and i want to achieve this weight reduction. though now im in 2nd week of gym.. i dropped 1.5 kg..

Thanks so much for this! Now another thing to worry about. I dropped 30lbs in
3 moths drinking one cup a day.. However, ive completely changed my diet & only eat healthy stuff. Fruits, vegies, nuts, fish, vitamins, etc. Plus, I work out every day. I ran out of the coffee & just reordered & didnt get it yet. Heres the deal. IVe been sweating alot more than usual. I sweat in the morning & afternoons alot. Its very noticeable. My God.,I pray Im not slowly dieing here..
Im stopping right now! No more easy magic pills. Do it right people!
Love all of you!
God Bless,

thank you very much. i was & still trying to loose weight & a friend introduces this brazillian coffee to us a few months back. i was happy with the result actually & decided to religiously take it every morning 30min before breakfast until a friend sent me a link to your blog (here). i couldn’t see your photos so i decided to try your experiment at home & was surprised with what i found out… it turned pink/reddish. right there i was so sad because i already consumed almost 10 boxes all in all. =(… i will be blogging about this, too, & link it to here. i dont actually understand those scientific terms but i understand that it is dangerous, scary & could even kill me.
i hope you could share ways to flush the toxins out of our bodies if you find the ways. thanks so much.

i scroll down some of the comments and reviews, i find it neutral. in this life, theres always different perspective.

when i went home in manila for my family vacation, i bought 8 boxes of this nature fashion slimming coffee with me here in U.S. it was strongly recommended by my to siblings who had made a tremendous lost weight in just 3mos. ( well, i haven’t seen them since january ’11). they combined discipline, healthy diet and this slimming coffee. they said that the dryness of throat is the immediate and primary side effect as well constipation. thats why they told me to take high fiber foods and prune fruit or juice.

since i May, its only now that i able to consume my slimming coffee, actually im on my 4th day now. and im good. i am experiencing what i expected like the dryness of throat and slight constipation. NO headache, NO heavy breathing or even palpitation. though, i feel much more active, its like i have so much energy. i start my day @ 7am and even until 3pm im still hip. i work as a private nurse.

what i do is i take 1 sachet in the morning, i mix it with my brewed coffee then coffeemate no sugar ‘coz i cant stand the taste of drinking alone the slimming coffee.

so far so good, and my two siblings are done with their 3 mos daily intake, they just take it now once to twice in a week.

i think, for you guys out there who wants to continue the consumption of this product, you have to buy only the original and not the fake ones. the original is really pricey but you will reap out the the benefits, so make your investment wisely. dont settle your diet to cheap bargains!

Hi, just started drinking that coffee today, haven’t done the liquid detergent test yet..I got a lot of co workers who were used to be so “heavy” and surprisingly, shockingly skinny now. I was warn about the side effects, heart palpitations, dry mouth, frequent urination, etc. but I will try the test and sadly, I really wanna lose at least 30 lbs…………..will let ya know how it goes:-)

hi ms bang.. i just knew this information last night when im browsing the net.. and today i found your blog.. thank you so much for the detailed information.. i just loose weigh from fashion actually good result tlga.. but when i read your blog im scared and might stop drinking as well.. i just want to ask you, anu na po ung gngwa mu pra maflush ung coffee.. natakot tlga aku promise.. since january until today ininom ku xa kya ayaw ku ren ituloy.. sna help mu ren aku iflush.. thnx!

I’ve read this blog before and akala ko baka fake yung coffee na nagiiba ng kulay kasi i tried it myself hindi nman nagbago yung kulay yung coffee na iniinom ko so i thought i could trust my supplier for selling me the authentic one but last week i received another 2 boxes of this coffee with the same supplier,bale ito na siguro pang anim kong box,right now while i was reading this and drinking my coffee,i noticed iba na lasa nya than the usual,iba na rin yung color so i decided not to finish it and do the test,and i was completely shocked,this time im not having goose bumps because of the side effect it’s because i was so terrified,i mixed it with dishwashing powder ayun nagiba nga kulay nya parang kulay blood na nga,i need to let my hubby know about this because he just started taking it also….:-(

thank you for the warnings and for sharing your personal experience related to so called “slimming coffee” i’m a fan of natural weight loss but with other slower methods like aerobics and fitness with lots of green tea and vegetables.

I had learned this fad of diet coffee a few days before I left Davao for Amsterdam last June from a friend who lost 25 pounds after she consumed some boxes of this slimming coffee. Although my BMI is only 22, I was contemplating on buying it because I wanted to get rid of 3 unwanted kilos but thank God I did not have the time to meet the agent who was selling this said coffee.

I would like to share you what I had been googling (just one of the many bad news about this slimming coffee and tea) …

A Lowdown on Slimming Teas and Coffees

A lot of people have the presumption that taking slimming teas or coffees is the easiest way to lose those unwanted pounds. Many products advertise the successful effects of their merchandise. However, I beg to disagree with this notion and this coming from the perspective of a female surgeon.
I have seen and treated many women who come to my clinic for hemorrhoids. Yes, you heard me. Hemorrhoids! Often when I delve into their personal histories, they usually present with a problem of constipation and confess to using herbal slimming teas or coffees. Constipation per se is the act of difficulty in moving your bowels, that is, you need to strain in order to “poop” (to be blunt about it). And most of these women I’ve treated resort to medications (ex. Laxatives) and slimming teas or coffees to help ease their bowel discomfort. However the low-down on these products is that once you get used to relying on these products to give you a sense of regularity in your bowel habits your intestines lose their natural peristaltic movement. Eventually, your digestive tract becomes dependent on the stimulus that these products provide your system and you become more constipated once you stop using them. Also, slimming teas and coffees give you a false sense of security wherein you think you are losing weight when you are actually losing body water. Persistence of the diarrheic state accompanying the use of these products can actually dehydrate you and even damage your kidneys. Thus, the vicious cycle of constipation and diarrhea occurs, which actually causes you to develop or aggravate existing hemorrhoids.
While the treatment of hemorrhoids is initially conservative, those who don’t respond to treatment usually end up having an operation and believe me nobody wants to undergo this procedure. I always advise patients with constipation to drink lots of fluids (at least 2-3 liters a day) and to modify their diet (high fiber diet really works wonders!) I advise them to avoid the slimming teas and coffees. If you need your caffeine fix, go for brewed coffee (2-3 cups a day is recommended by the American Heart Association) and green or black tea. And I always tell my patients that it’s better to go the natural way than suffer the consequences of having hemorrhoids (Ouch!).

Hi Vanessa ! Thanks for this very informative information. I hope slimming coffee drinkers will soon realize the harmful effects of these slimming coffee products on their health.
Let’s all stay healthy. God bless.

Brazilian Coffee was banned in Brazil for its bad effects like having kidney defects and distributed their stocks to the other countries particularly in the Philippines. It is a wide spread and it is commonly being brought at the chinese drugstores. Brazilian coffee is N0T BFAD approved.

Hi Bang,

You are always welcome! It is my pleasure to share my fellow Filipinas some knowledge I have acquired from my friend, Google. LOL

Whether it is Brazil coffee or healthy coffee or diet coffee or slimming tea, hands off PLS!!! Please do N0T drink it because it can ruin your health. Just the notion or idea of products ‘made in China’ makes me cringe especially about these diet coffees which are a fad now in our country. If it is too good to be true, please do not believe it. Hindi por que uso, makikiuso na tayo, di ba? We have only one life so we have to take good care of it. If you would like to lose some unwanted weight, you have to do it the normal way, make a healthy diet and do some exercises at the same time. Perhaps these Chinese companies which fabricate these slimming coffees and teas do not care because China like the Philippines is over populated (just my 2 cents worth). They don’t care if people get serious illnesses from their products which are made without quality but by quantity. Money talks in China, bs walks for those naive people who believe in it. I have no idea when these slimming coffee and tea have been invented, but rest assure they are N0T recommended by doctors. Whether they’re cheap or not, they can ruin your health. “Health is wealth”.

hi miss bang! im about to buy leisure coffee! but i really searched for any side effects of this slimming coffee coz as a medical practitioner, i know every thing that is taken by mouth or any other ways affecting our health, may it be good has side effects. so i kept on searching for a really reliable source that will help me decide as to buy or not to buy the product. my friend introduces me that leisure coffee since she gave birth of her 1st child and she desperately wanted to lose weight instantly. and yea! he lose so much weight after drinking that said coffee. a big difference indeed! felt so envious about the effect and her body. but my mom didnt allow me to buy it. but lately, i really agained almost 4 kilos and its so devastating! i hate it! felt so guilty of my actions! that’s why i went to malls and looked for leisure coffee. it cost 200 php only! imagine how cheap, i mean affordable it is? just realized though that the price is just right and the effect is explicit but when we think of it, losing weight isnt that easy at all. THAT INSTANT LOSING OF WEIGHT IS NOT SAFE!

i attended to sessions at gym lately and im tired of it but its much better than instant losing of weight which isn’t healthy at all! OMG! thank God, i found your explanation. will inform my friends who are taking it. i was really tempted to buy! i hate these fats! uggh!

God bless Bang! continue to spread this information. its a great help to all desperate ladies taking these slimming coffees spreading in the market these days.

Hi!!, I really want to try Body Language Slimming Coffee, but I’m having doubts because I used to take Leisure 18 for 1 and a half years and it’s no longer effective for me, I saw SnL advertised in facebook and on TV. I am very interested to take this but, I’m wondering if there should be a time frame before taking this, because I’m also worried there might be bad effects on my body w/ will lead me in a worst situation, please reply, I really need assistance, you can contact me on my email address adelae18@yahoo.com or kindly text me on 09215623567.

I’ve been searching for reviews about slimming coffees and this is what I’ve found. Thank you so much for your review. I’ve been so envious of some people I know because they’ve lost huge amount of weight, and now all I want to do is share this very informative review of yours.

hi. i wanna point out a big mistake here. the acidic ph color ranges from red to light green. the ph color of neutral is green and the base or alkaline ph level ranges from light blue to violet. fuchsia pink or blue or the colors said above fall under ALKALINE. alkalizing the body is a good thing. but since it turned fuchsia pink then its probably TOO alkaline. some of you might think that too much alkaline could be as harmful as too much acid but it is not. our world right now is practically charged with acidity –certain choices of food, pollution, chemicals, etc.so it pretty much just balances your body. i dont think this slimming coffee can kill people, given that the people who take this do not in any way feel any irritation and abnormal side effects. you shouldve searched what the results meant. this post just ruined the name of a genuine product to a lot of people.

hi everyone! i tried fashion slimming coffee with japan pearl extract mixing with a detergent but there’s no change in color… it means it does not contain Phenolphthalein which you guys said that it has a bad effects to the body when you take in.. and maybe in that experiment it was just testing the pH level of the substance.. but the best thing here is that if you do care of your health and wants to reduce your weight, then go for a diet counseling and ask a registered dietitian for health advices. thank you! God Bless.

hi ms. Bang! Thank u very much for that info. Im about to take that slimming coffee, but thanks GOD, I searched for any info and comments about the product and I found your blog. Thanks again. God bless.

Hi,slimming coffee is indeed very tempting, as my friend and I were strolling this morning, I open up the topic of drinking slimming, desperately, we canvass with the price, but as I arrived home, I searched some effects about slimming coffees and I found your blog. Thank you soo much for your information, I am this close of buying ‘Body Language slimming coffee/ Leisure 18/ Brazillian Coffeee’ watever slimming coffee is available in the market. Thank God, I’ve found your blog, and I am enlightened, It’s just sad that, other people wouldn’t believe you.
Magic/Instant intake products are very dangerous in everyone’s health.

For all the readers of her blog:*walang pagsisisi na nauuna, nasa huli talaga ang pagsisisi

Slimming Coffee
I have used this for quite sometime, let’s say about 8 months. I stopped when I learned I’m pregnant 2 months ago. I could have written about it the first two weeks I was using it but was unable to. I just couldn’t find the time.

Until about 2 weeks back, someone shared this link to me. http://sweetbitesbybang.com/?p=1299. The coffee I was using was so effective that I even recommended it to my friends and was effective just the same. I lost about 25lbs when I was still using it. The link that was shared to me led some of my friends to stop using it. Well, it is being responsible with what you use or take. If you know it will affect your health then you will definitely stop too.

I did a little research though. Being a Chemical Engineer makes me doubt an experiment conducted by accident. This may not be like Penicillin, where you accidentally discovers it is useful and uses it as antibiotics. I would want to have someone from a laboratory test it, if possible but I cannot say I can conclude the same way the writer did, that there’s phenolphthalein in the coffee.

Here are some points the writer might have missed during her experiment:

1. Phenolphthalein is insoluble in water. If it will be mixed with the coffee, it should be dissolved in alcohol first. Given that alcohol is very volatile and it is a coffee powder, it would leave a powdered phenolphthalein which should be yellowish in color. Can anyone check this out?

2. If the Phenolphthalein concentration is high in a specific solution, when mixed with a buffer solution, turns bright purple. The writer mixed the residue left after she drank her coffee with a detergent, but detergents are not necessarily buffer solutions. It depends on the manufacturer and the materials used for the manufacture of that specific detergent. If you are planning to test this out with a buffer solution, here’s how to make one. Use this instead of a pure detergent:

Buffer solution: 125 mL of water (distilled water, if available)

1⁄2 cup 1 mL (1.5 grams) of sodium chloride (table salt)

1⁄4 tsp 4 mL (5.0 grams) baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate)

3⁄4 tsp 5 mL of good quality liquid laundry detergent, 1 tsp

3. There’s another compound/indicator that gives the pink to purple color. I think it is Potassium Permanganate which is not harmful but can’t be proven to be present in the coffee just by adding detergent to it. Now, if Potassium permanganate was present, then there should be no Phenolpthalein but can’t be proven unless tested. Usually, Potassium Permanganate is used as a deodorizer. It is possible to use it on soaps, detergents, etc. to eliminate odors. Depending on the manufacturer, Potassium Permanganate may be present in the detergent instead of the coffee.
4. Therefore, we can’t prove that the substance responsible for the pinkish color is from the coffee or the detergent. We also can’t prove that there’s Phenolphthalein or Potassium Permanganate or whatever it is that caused the reaction and change in color, unless it was tested in a controlled environment like a laboratory.

Of course, this is a matter of Personal Choice. When we choose to eat lechon, we risked our health because we want to enjoy. Even if we know for a fact that it is indeed a risk, we eat it. A barbecue cooked on a Charcoal is said to be Carcinogenic too but I still eat it. We still eat it. If we still decide to use something and risk it, then we can’t blame anyone else. We have to fully take the responsibility. Let’s just hope that someone would test this product and let’s hope it’s really safe.

I super agree with you…its a choice, just be careful with your choices.Scrutinize it.
Each has different health conditions,hence body has different reactions. If you drink something which has no good effects in you, then stop it. On the otherhand , if it has positive effect on you, and you believe that its good and your product source is realiable, you have nothing to worry. I think i have no problem with that. Reliable manufacturer means everything declared in the label is true and correct.

I am a user of Leisure 18 for more than a month now , infact I actually purchased 1 box this afternoon at SM, . the thing is I love this product because i saw some good result and the side effects is manageable. What I can only remember on my first few days of using it is that I only experienced some goosebumps… but to my surprised this afternoon when I got home … I found this :

Public Notification: “Leisure 18 Slimming Coffee” Contains Undeclared Drug Ingredient
[October 18, 2011] The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use “Leisure 18 Slimming Coffee,” a product for weight loss sold on various websites and in some retail stores.

FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that “Leisure 18 Slimming Coffee” contains sibutramine. Sibutramine is a controlled substance that was removed from the U.S. market in October 2010 for safety reasons. The product poses a threat to consumers because sibutramine is known to substantially increase blood pressure and/or pulse rate in some patients and may present a significant risk for patients with a history of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke. This product may also interact in life threatening ways with other medications a consumer may be taking.

Consumers should stop using this product immediately and throw it away. Consumers who have experienced any negative side effects should consult a health care professional as soon as possible.

Healthcare professionals and patients are encouraged to report adverse events or side effects related to the use of this product to the FDA’s MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program:

Complete and submit the report Online: http://www.fda.gov/MedWatch/report.htm1
Download form2 or call 1-800-332-1088 to request a reporting form, then complete and return to the address on the pre-addressed form, or submit by fax to 1-800-FDA-0178
Note: This notification is to inform the public of a growing trend of products marketed as dietary supplements or conventional foods with hidden drugs and chemicals. These products are typically promoted for sexual enhancement, weight loss, and body building, and are often represented as being “all natural.” FDA is unable to test and identify all products marketed as dietary supplements that have potentially harmful hidden ingredients. Consumers should exercise caution before purchasing any product in the above categories.

I have the receipt here and never open the box, but Im wondering if I could return it and get my 200 pesos back. The store where I bought this is also a dealer of different chinese medicine, slimming drinks and even local food supplements. It is located infront of the supermarket counters… Im so disappointed with this .. really.. I dont know if I want to continue it and take the risk since Im getting a good result with no disturbing side effects on my part.

Hi there! Thank God I saw this blog before consuming the coffee. Like you, i gained so much weight after giving birth – I can’t fit in my old clothes, and i’m now literally using my mom’s clothes and shopping for XL! It’s so frustrating specially when people don’t recognize you because you’ve put on so much weight! The best thing to do is to exercise talaga. I’ll just go to the gym than die early.

iv tried leisure 18 choco, hilo and may konting palpitaion.. i also wake up in the middle of the night gasping for air. after mag-stop ako, i gained weight ulet.. as in i doubled in size talaga! used to be large prior to taking the L18 choco.. almost xxl n ata size ko ngayon. well.. TO GOOD TO BE TRUE! mas important p rin ang health.. never put your health at risk guys!

hi ms. bang…i also tried the slimming coffee you showed on the picture but i dont feel any side effect…then i tried another brand leisure 18…i havent poop in 4 days then when i finally had a chance…my poop was RED!!!me and my husband was shocked!that’s why i found your site!!oh my..thanks for your information!!

leisure 18 is indeed very effective. I was really amazed at its speed in trimming down my excess fats. after i consumed the 18 packs everybody noticed my figure. I actually lost 5 kilograms in just a matter of two weeks. However just like you, I was having a hard time removing my stool. I am constipated even if i already drink 1.5 liters of water a day. As a remedy I just take laxatives until i reached my desired weight.

For me anything in excess is bad enough, that’s why I considered leisure 18 to be helpful in reducing weight as long as it is taken in just a short period of time.

ive bought slimming coffe and i took the first sachet and oh god i was really sick i couldnt move my head , so i stopped taking it and tried to see if others have some health problems too now that i am reading all these for sure its the slimming brasilian coffe thats making me a headache and without strenght

I have been drinking Coffee Fashion Slimming . I bought directly from Hongkong. I have aunt and cousins in law working in Hongkong and they what are authentic products. fortunately, I dont feel any problem. In fact, I love it with creamer. I also get extra energy though my food intake is reduce because of appetite suppressant effect due Garcinia Cambodia Extract HCA . The one i found too in my Forever living products – Garcinia Plus. The component i am looking for from Coffee Slimming. Furthermore,what I do is I drink two cups of alkaline water from my alkaline flask early morning, then followed by Coffee Fashion Slimming with Nestle Creamer. Then execute simple exercises 1-10 counts only. After I perspire , I take more water and start my morning diet. I am not choosy with foods being serve.So, I have no negative comment with an authenti slimming coffee… I dont buy to anyone, except those came from my aunt in hongkong…My aunts friends are also taking this coffee. And they have no negative comment too. We are rest assured that what we are taking are authentic one..

Hi! I have tried all those slimming coffee. Lately ang nature fashion ang iniinom ko. I want to share to all of you the worst side effect na naexperienced ko. I applied for a job at this prestigious hotel. I got hired and HRD sent me an email that I should comply na all the requirements- nbi, police, barangay clearance etc.. medical- cbc, urinalysis, stool, drug test etc… So last Fri Feb.17 I went to their affiliated diagnostic center to take the medical exam. Yesterday I went back to get the results. But before they gave me the results, I was asked to go to the psychology room. I wondered why pero in my mind ah maybe may psychological exam pa. When the lady entered the room she was bringing papers which seemed to be my results. I was so shocked when she told me that I was positive sa drug test- shabu! I was like “huh?? are you sure?? why??”… I really don’t know what went wrong but all I can think of and blame was the coffee. I researched in the net and I found out that the side effects of the coffee has the same side effects in taking shabu- dry mouth, loss of appetite, palpitation etc… I really don’t know what other ingredient the coffee has, but one thing’s for sure it screwed up my drug test… The diagnostic center will send my drug test result and specimen(same urine) to this center for “confirmatory” which will take at least 2 weeks for me to find out kung ano ang result talaga. And they say if positive pa rin ako they will send the result to DOH and I will be banned from any work for a year! I cried because hindi ko talaga maintindihan what just happened. I don’t do drugs kaya hindi ko madigest when they told me that I was positive… My only hope now is God. Later today I am going to take another drug test at 2 credible hospitals for 2nd opinion… Will keep you posted. And oh, I didn’t drink the coffee this morning na. So scared na.

Appreciate much your blog.. anyway i would like to ask if all the slimming coffee has bad effect? as of now, trinatry ko po yung Leisure Brazillan coffee then yung side efffect niya sakin para akong may emotional problem.. please reply.. thanks and God Bless!

I’d like to share my views with Fashion Nature Slimming coffee (which I am currently consuming my 2nd box – embossed & gold w/ 3 logos). I am 30 yrs old and have been doing regular exercises like (belly dancing, walking, cardio workout & spot reducing) since forever and have been able to maintain my chubby weight but could never manage to loss a single kilo without dreading the self-control diet regimen required which I call deprivation and eventually led to my yo-yo dieting effect. I do not over-eat & I watch what I put in my mouth but unfortunately, genes can play a significant role. Having a lot of overweight relatives there really is no denying being a vigilant weight watcher is my only option.
A business partner recommended “the coffee” by which I never knew existed in the in the first place. I was at first so doubtful of its effectiveness but at the same time gave me a glimmer of hope. Though she has warned me what to expect (irregular stool, loss of appetite, thirst/dry mouth, frequent urination) since she has been taking it for 2 months (and I’d say she’s looking pretty good) so I decided to give it a try. I told myself I’ll keep an open mind & do my own research. I have googled the stated ingredients numerously to say I feel safe with this coffee as long as I do not become dependent to it. But I do cringed even now looking at the Chinese characters I can never decipher & God only knows what it meant…
However, on the brighter and positive side, now I know how to LISTEN to what my body needs. I suddenly came to terms with the utmost understanding in connection to losing weight and eating slowly. I call it an “instinct trigger button” from my tummy signals the brain that I’ve had enough. No need to consume more or I’ll get tummy ache. The dizziness/headache which at first I tried to ignore since I’ve been warned it’s one of its side effects is in my opinion is due to the small portion meals I was consuming. So now when I get dizzy/headache I interpret it as a hunger pang/appetite prompting by my brain to eat something. I am now eating 3 proper meals in small portions & snacks (fruits mostly) in between. I do not deprive myself of anything I wanna eat but in moderation, of course. Though my water consumption stayed relatively the same recently I’ve noticed I also need to have a glass of water before going to bed. My conclusion therefore is my natural brain trigger has been reawakened.
I am strongly NOT endorsing or encouraging anyone to use this product if you can do it the natural way. My undertaking for A Fit & Healthier Me journey is entirely my observation for myself & may not be applicable to you depending on body type, health issues & workout routines. I have also decided that next month, my 3rd month of this coffee regimen no need for maintenance or whatsoever coz it might lead to addiction or dependence. Taking this coffee is entirely an aid to curb my appetite without feeling any depression. Nonetheless, I’d say to trim down, portioning is the key, choosing a healthy lifestyle is a must & always remember that exercise promotes a less fitful sleep and releases endorphins also called the happiness hormones. Don’t let the coffee do all the work to avoid weight rebound. By the way, I have lost more or less 5kls after a month. I feel lighter, healthier, confident & happier. Hope this has been helpful.

so curious too!! i do the test myself too just a minute ago. i don’t see any changes in color on mine. I got my leisure coffee from Kuwait. am on my 3rd box now & i don’t feel any symptoms that u guys are having. actually it’s opposite, i feel so light & energized. But, of course as what everybody said, take it on your on risk & anything that you intake for the first time, always be aware of any changes in your body, when you feel something weird & not normal you should stop right away.
Bang, thank you for sharing this.

OMG.. I wanted to try this pero, super scared talaga ko kasi I know.. anything we take in will either benefit us or harm us… if not now, in the future.. Pero the mere fact na may side effect, it means may nangyayari inside our body, and its like harmful. I just hope those you are taking or would like to try it, would give it a long hard thought…. Nakakatakot to sobra. But, I’ve read 1 or 2 positive feedbacks so, baka may FAKE at may AUTHENTIC talaga… so careful na lang talaga siguro yung gusto mag take… kung may bad side effect… Stop na lang. Its not worth risking your life… this blog is awesome! kudos to her!

i’ve tried it for 2 months and it’s effective that i dropped to 45 kilos from 63kilos. but then i stopped drinking slimming coffee because of its other side effects. it’s really alarming because i felt really dehytrated even my brain impulses begin to have confusions that i begun to be forgetful aside from having a tremendous headaches. so i stopped.

Hi all.
I came across this page because like all of us, i have bought and tried leisure 18 slimming chocolate drink. I am on my 7th day now and so far ive only lost 3lbs, a lot less than others, but also, i have not had any bad side effects mentioned here. Hindi ako nakaramdam ng abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, headache, palpitation, etc. The effects that i felt were easy fatigabuility, dryness of the mouth and throat and thrist. These are not side effects, these are part of the effects of dieting. Yes, dieting. Kasi by taking these appetite suppresant drinks, you cut back on food, which is called dieting. I am not an expert but i am a medical student on my 4th year, this is what i have to say, lahat ng gamot may advantages at disadvantages. Kahit simpleng paracetamol, dahil lahat yan may ibat ibang effects sa katawan natin. For me, you just have to know how to take the “drugs” and when to stop. Like these drinks, hindi porke d ka gutom eh d ka na kakain. Stool or poop, is formed from what you eat. So kung wala ka kinain, malamang wala ka din ilalabas. Hemorrhoids is from straining. Dahil nga d ka nag poop for a few days malamang panic mode ka na and you strain to get something out pero wala ngang lalabas kasi walang laman ang cecum at rectum mo. So when finally nakaipon na cya ng laman at nastimulate na ang center mo for defecation, may blood na from your previous straining. Dizziness, headaches, palpitations all comes from lack of food. Caffeine in coffee also produces palpitation so double whammy. All coffees, kahit hindi slimming, should be taken in moderation bec of the same effects, research on caffeine effects. What i did is i maintaned a 1200cal diet while taking this drink. So gradual nga ang weight loss ko pero wala namang unwanted side effects. I have tried dieting before and the effects were the same, un nga lang pahirapan ma maintain ang 1200calorie diet since takaw mata ako. Now with this, walang kahirap hirap na na mamaintain ko ung calories ko.

I agree to your theories Nobody.. I bought a box of slimming coffee from a friend about a month ago but I stopped drinking it after consuming 2 sachets, I stopped because of the blogs that I read about it.. I also experienced dizziness right after drinking each in the morning with an empty stomach so I got scared.. and I also read that it was one of the effects of one of its components called “Sibutramine” which is attacking human’s brain.. but now I finally decided to continue as besides dizziness there was no other effect on me as I have a strong body, I work out almost everyday and I am eating healthy food.. I already loss 20 lbs after 3 months of boxing training (without taking any drug) but I need to lose 10 more pounds and I need to do it within a month and a half so I need something that can stop my craving to rice and fried food and be more serious about my diet.. I will finish the whole box but I will make sure that I will be eating first before each cup and I will also take a heartplus capsule everyday to support my heart.. For all of you who are planning to take this Slimming Coffee, make sure to eat 4 small meals a day with at least 2 snacks to give your body protection from any bad effect of this coffee, if any, and to maintain a strong body! You also need to protect your heart by doing some exercises everyday or as much as possible to avoid such hyphertensions and heart problems.. you can also take this heartplus from the makers of GreenBarley or take the GreenBarley juice as well.

Hi everyone..iread almost all post about slimming coffee..what i want to ask u guys is that ive heard about green coffee 1000..yesterday i bought one box from supermarket in kuwait.the problem is that whenever i drink this coffee i fell like my head is becoming so heavy and literally i feel like my blood pressure is getting high and same day i have dots of blood also on my panty.is it just happening with me or do any of u/female feel the same.?..and is it ok to take cofee in this situation? thanks

hi! thanks for posting this blog, i have read all the comments
i just want to share that i had bad experience with this coffee as well. same thing happened to me, im not taking 1 whole sachet i just put 14 per cup of coffee , i mix it with my regular coffee because the nasty taste of it.
i had disturbed sleeping pattern, palpitations,and headache from time to time after taking this coffee. after i heard the news on tv last night , i threw all the sachets left in the box,. i hope i can find a way to flush all the components of this coffee from my body. i will stop taking this fad diet and get back to normal healthy diet. i don’t care if others keep on poking on my baby fats and making fun of my double chin but i wont risk my life for a cup of killer coffee anymore!

I was just about to buy this slimming coffee and decided to do some reading online about it first, I’m so glad I did. Thanks you for this blog after reading these reports I will not be getting it and I will just lose my weight the good old fashion way. Eating right, less, and working out.

hi there… i also tried this exact coffee that you posted and its really effective, for two moths i lost 20 kilos for real and they all noticed it. kaso lagi akong nagkakaron ng heart burn though tolerable nman kaso nung maubos xa di nko makahanap ng original, puro fake ung nabibili ko and now i searched trough internet for this coffe and look what i found? your blog lang naman…so i think its god’s will, not to let me drink this coffee again.. thank you sa info and concern mo i hope madami pang makabasa nito para ma save sila from this very dangerous killer coffee… anyway.. that 20 kilos that i lost, na-gain ko na ulet kc wla na ung coffe, ok lang rather than pumayat ka but become very unhealthy or die early… god bless you

Hi, I’m 19, currently using Leisure Slimming Coffee for two weeks now. What I’ve noticed is that the side effects are almost the same with Biguerlai tea, dryness of mouth and throat which causes me to drink more water. The only difference is that the tea caused me to poop every morning, while the coffee did not affect my bowel movement at all. But I have really lost my appetite because of the coffee, so I can say it’s effective. With regular one hour exercise everyday and no rice diet, I lost 3kg in two weeks. However, I am having second thoughts about continuing my intake of this coffee, since I have no idea of its ingredients. The package did not have the list of ingredients, I cannot even find it online. I also tried searching for its bad side effects but I cannot find anything “credible.” So maybe I’ll try your experiment and post here the results.

i stop drinking that fuckin slimming coffee immediately ryt after i read this blog, pumayat nga tau di nmn maeenjoy un kasexyhan kapag naka confine ka na sa hospital ryt? and how could you be beautiful if you’ve already have manifestation ng mga diseases that u can get from that coffee..

hello aljether: are you really true to that statement that you’re going to make this as your thesis topic? (is it for thesis masteral or college baby thesis)? please send me the result of your result, I am a science teacher. thanks

Use your brains. There are no magic coffees or pills to magically melt weight off of you WITHOUT RISKS.
If this coffee was so miraculous, then why don’t we see them talking about it on 60 minutes, 20/20, ..reading it on the front page of every newspaper and publication in the world !!!!
Do you know how many FAT people there are…not to mention all of you normal sized people obsessed with being even skinnier at ALL COSTS.

How SAD that vanity trumps good common sense and your health.
You want to lose weight effortlessly and people all over the world are trying to do the same thing. So you think that the Philippines suddenly discovered the cure to fat ??? NO FRIGGIN WAY !!!!
SLIMMING COFFEE IS NOT THE ANSWER TO SHEDDING WEIGHT !
IT IS FILLED WITH DRUGS THAT RAISE THE BLOOD PRESSURE AND POTENTIALLY PERMANENTLY HARM YOU !
Oh your siblings or friends lost weight and didn’t die. OK….go for it.
Don’t bother asking your doctor or your pharmacist. Don’t look for articles on the internet that might show negative views of this product.
I showed the product to my pharmacist and he said he is going to research it, but stated it “has to have some kind of drug that is causing this”.
I would not risk your life or health for a fantasy.
NOTHING replaces EXERCISE and GOOD DIET !
